Riiiiiiiiiiiiiiii-stola!

The action folded to Markus Ristola who raised to 3,600 from the button before the flop; he found one caller in the form of Jason Senti who called from the big blind to make it heads-up to the flop of {K-Hearts}{K-Clubs}{A-Spades}.

Both players checked, then Ristola checked again on the turn of the {6-Clubs} before Senti opened for 4,000. However, Ristola check-raised him, making it 12,600 to go and Senti called before both players checked the river of the {2-Spades}.

"You got me," Senti sighed before Ristola opened up {A-Hearts}{J-Spades}{9-Spades}{9-Clubs} for two pair to take the pot down. Ristola's looking comfortable with 82,000 in chips, but we hope he can hold his own out there, as not only is he sharing space with Senti, Vanessa Selbst and Layne Flack, but now Josh Arieh has joined their table!
